Chinese jade turtle

This turtle sculpture is crafted from jade, a stone prized for its green color and aesthetic qualities. Jade is particularly associated with Chinese culture, where it has been considered a symbol of purity and wisdom for millennia. Originating from China, this type of jade, often called "nephrite jade" due to its resistance and density, is commonly used in traditional art and sculpture. This jade turtle reflects heritage and artisanal craftsmanship. It is a valuable addition to any collection.

This turtle measures approximately 7 cm.
